With Sympathy

Hi there!  I am back again, with the kind card that I always hate having to make.  I just found out that two of my friends had a parent that passed away.  This one is for a friend in my personal life who was very close to her mother that passed away.  I am not sure if she is the kind to like purple, but this is just where it took me when I sat down to create.


I embossed the patterned paper to give it a little more texture.  The image was colored and fussy cut then popped up with pop dots.


I used the sketch at Sweet Sunday for my design.

SUPPLIES USED:



Thanks so much for stopping by,
Heather

    Heather this is gorgeous. And that sympathy sentiment is beautiful! You never enjoy making this type of card, but it is probably the most appreciated by the recipient. TFS!

    She will love and appreciate this card and all the care you put into it, regardless of the color. It is beautiful! I like how you used the flower spray with the circle. That particular purple cardstock is so soft and pretty!

    A very beautiful card, Heather. Just the right amount of purple on it even if someone doesn't like purple they would love this!

    Very pretty! Almost cheerful if you will but not, does that make sense? A warm smile is what it brings I guess what I am saying. ;-)
